You want to feel free in your body. To enjoy intimacy without overthinking. But instead… you freeze. You feel awkward, stiff, disconnected. And the thoughts come in: Why can’t I just relax? Why do I feel this way? Let me tell you something: You are not broken. You are not alone. And you can change this.


In today’s episode, we’re talking about:

  • Why intimacy feels stiff and awkward—and how to break free from it
  • The secret reason high-achieving women feel disconnected from their sensuality
  • How to stop performing and start feeling fully present in your body
  • A simple daily practice to bring back playfulness, confidence, and desire
  • What to do when your body resists intimacy—and how to feel safe again
  • Intimacy isn’t just about your partner—it’s about you reconnecting with yourself.


Here’s what I want you to try this week:

✔ Touch your body with kindness.

✔ Hold your arms, run your hands down your legs—not to judge, but to appreciate.

✔ Slow down. Hold a touch longer, meet his eyes when you speak, take a deep breath before reacting.

✔ Let go of the pressure to ‘do it right.’ Focus on how intimacy feels, not how it looks.

If you’ve ever felt disconnected from your body, this episode is for you.

Listen now and tell me—What’s one small way you’ll reconnect with yourself this week?
